NETFLIX has announced they are creating a Bridgerton prequel series focusing on the antics of a young Queen Charlotte. The gossip-loving monarch, played by Golda Rosheuvel, was a fan favourite in the first season of the Regency-era drama, becoming obsessed with the identity of the mysterious Lady Whistledown, who knew all the goings on of the 'Ton elite.
However, she also held a hidden sadness due to her husband's failing health, which she kept away from the fancy parties of high society.
